Though not the only reason, I have noticed that 9 out of 10 people with bridle knots and pilot chute/bridle entanglements are due to heavy hackey balls with single point attachments (easily hooking the bridle behind it). So not a fan of hackey balls.

Both for a more secure fix during backflying/collisions and also due to more secure placement of the handle inside the airplane when moving about, 100% promoter of freefly puds for wingsuit jumps (handle design does differ and makes some nicer than others, and making sure its not one with a single point attachment or bit of string/bridle between the handle is important).

*edited to add*
PVC tube, though less secure in the plane, and as long as its a double point/tight attachment to the PC, is a good second.

Ditto - with double attachment, tube 'filled and enclosed', and double tight BOC spandex.

Yep, definately tape the ends of your PVC. I've had to shake one off a gloved finger.

wine bottle corks make excellent filler without adding much weight.

Pud, but don't really like it with winter gloves on. VERY secure, I don't tuck tab into pocket as can almost swing container about by pud if tab in its pocket.

Pretty pleased with the results of the wine cork, fits nice and snug and doesn't require tape/glue

::PVC tube was standard Mirage issue when I ordered the rig with wingsuit options
